O-1 Tholian Destroyer

 

by Bryan Jecko
NOTES:
        As one of the most basic and simplistic military craft from the Tholian Assembly, the O-1 destroyer has been encountered more times than any other Tholian craft. Despite it's significant age, it's unusual technology continues to provide the Assembly with a truely dangerous and capable war craft.
        The O-1 was first encountered in the early 2240's during initial conflicts with the Tholian's. Many Federation commanders mistook the small size of the vessel for vulnerability, and a number of Federation interested were severly damaged or lost. The reputation of Tholian punctuality was only second to their technological prowes. The O-1 could easily match Federation vessels twice it's size and quickly gaine a reputation. The destroyer was known for it's manueverability, and Tholian tactics easily reflected this. When used in small squadrons or 2 or 3 vessels, the O-1 would easily englobe it's enemies, forcing them into a global defense. This prevented most vessels from concentrating their power, and often allowed the Tholian to destroy their targer, or at the very least, drive them off.
        The O-1 suffered from only one achilies heal - it's power matrix. During the 2240's and 2250's the O-1's basic power plant was sufficient to allow it a successful attack posture against most enemy targets. But as opponents became more powerful and
        By the 2250's as teritorial disputes continued, many feared an upgrade to the basic craft.
